    Have fun getting past the secretary.

  2. mikethenovice says:

    Standard default in calling a elected one is, Ok I’ll give this message to him/her. Thank You for calling with your concerns. Bye.

  3. mikethenovice says:

    Called John M. Mizuno (D)office about mopeds with illegal exhausts. Office worker/manager quoted, “It won’t be solved overnight.” She was NOT kidding. It’s been over a year and nothing has been done.

    Got a newsletter that Mizuno solved the resurfacing of streets in Kalihi. He was voted into office in 2007. It only took him 8+ years to get the job done. Oh, Houghtailing is still not done. Hopefully, it won’t take another 8 yrs to resurface that pot-hole riddled street.
